a) A Series Half Cadillac Bracket
Before installing your Half Cadillac for the A2, please consider if you wish
to use the rope risers on the reformer, or if you would prefer to install
them on to the stainless steel tube of the Half Cadillac frame. The pull
line on the ropes with the pulleys mounted on the Half Cadillac frame is
not quite the same, but some consider the benefits of having the risers
out of the way more than compensates for this. The original risers can
then either be unbolted or can be folded down out of the way as shown
in Fig.1. When folded the carriage can slide over the top of the risers.
Installing the Half Cadillac Bracket
Installing the Half Cadillac bracket is easy and is done with the tools sup-
plied. Simply attach the Half Cadillac bracket with the allen key provided
the four short bolts go in where the bolts are shown ion Fig 2, then the 2 long bolts screw in to the under
side of the frame. Repeat on the opposite side of the reformer for the second bracket, then with the help
of a colleague, slide the Half Cadillac frame into the brackets and use the Allen key to tighten the grub
screws to fix the Half Cadillac into position (Fig.4). Congratulations, you have now
completed installation of the A2 Half Cadillac.

b) C Series Half Cadillac Assembly
i. Attaching the lower Half Cadillac bracket
The Half Cadillac can be fitted to qualifying C Series reformers with its standard legs or with the extended
legs. The attachment proceedure is the same, though here we illustrate it being attched to the leg exten-
sion version. If you are attaching the Half Cadillac to the standard low leg reformer then the brackets in
Fig. 1 simply attach directly to the reformer leg.
At the riser end of the reformer attach the Half Cadillac base feet to the leg extensions using the Allen key
and 4 bolts/washers provided, 2 bolts/washers per side, see Fig 1 & 2. Insert and hand tighten all the bolts
first and then go round and tighten them properly with the Allen key supplied
